We need liquor sales at the Beav

Agree with the sentiment but don't think it applies in either of these instances.

Both filmed and shared on social media and clearly hear people cheering and saying ‘here we go! Get ‘em…’….

It's been my Beaver Stadium experience that most Penn Staters have (expertly?) adjusted their pregame intake to account for the 4 boozeless quarters of football (your mileage may vary).

It would be very interesting to see how long it might take Penn Staters to collectively adjust their intake barometers if any or all of those quarters were to suddenly become boozeful.

Yup. Buckle up.
I would argue there will be 10x more legally drunk people walking into the stadium than at halftime even with alcohol sales, especially for the 3:30 and prime time games.

There's a lot of binge drinking in stadium at pro games because the tailgates aren't anywhere near the college atmosphere. I don't see that happening at PSU except for those that will be a problem no matter what.

Judging by the food lines, someone would be lucky to get 1 drink per quarter and miss half the game if they choose to partake in $13.50 Bud Lights. 😉

Can;t believe, over the years, you guys don't sneak in your own pint flask into the Beav.

When I was at school we could head out to the tailgate any time we wanted and get right back in to the stadium. So, essentially we could drink all game long and I don't remember fights taking place.

I'm still amazed people have that much disposable cash to get $hitt faced drunk at a sporting event. I think one of the cheapest I've seen is $5 for a 12 oz. beer at Ravens Stadium. These people are either really wealthy or a bunch of light weights. :rolleyes:

I was at the Pirates-Mets game yesterday, and wifey and I ordered two 16 oz. draft Miller Lites. I was pleasantly surprised that they were just $10 each. Still pricey when compared to most anywhere outside of a ballpark, but compared to others I've heard about or seen, I'll take it.
But, the weirdest thing is, the total on the tab was $20.01. How/where do they add the extra penny?!

“Peter Gibbons: [Explaining the plan] All right, so when the sub routine compounds the interest is uses all these extra decimal places that just get rounded off. So we simplified the whole thing, we rounded them all down, drop the remainder into an account we opened.

Joanna: [Confused] So you're stealing?

Peter Gibbons: Ah no, you don't understand. It's very complicated. It's, uh, it's aggregate, so I'm talking about fractions of a penny here. And over time they add up to a lot.

Joanna: Oh okay. So you're gonna be making a lot of money, right?

Peter Gibbons: Yeah.

Joanna: Right. It's not yours?

Peter Gibbons: Well it becomes ours.

Joanna: How is that not stealing?

Peter Gibbons: [pauses] I don't think I'm explaining this very well.

Joanna: Okay.

Peter Gibbons: Um...the 7-11. You take a penny from the tray, right?

Joanna: From the crippled children?

Peter Gibbons: No, that's the jar. I'm talking about the tray. You know the pennies that are for everybody?

Joanna: Oh for everybody. Okay.

Peter Gibbons: Well those are whole pennies, right? I'm just talking about fractions of a penny here. But we do it from a much bigger tray and we do it a couple a million times.”

That's because you drank too much to notice them.

They should do a huge tent in the reincarnated Block Party area between the BJC & the Beav have an Oktoberfest there for Central Michigan, either that or personal seat service with these
